Dentist Questions Dental Bridges

Is it painful to get a dental bridge?

I'm 36 years old and I need to have a dental bridge for one of my missing teeth. Are dental bridges painful to get?

All dental work carries a degree of discomfort, but your dentist should provide adequate anesthesia.
No
In any procedure like that, you will have local anesthetic for the procedure and then a temporary bridge will be placed while the lab fabricates your final bridge. You should be comfortable for the entire procedure.
It is NOT painful as long as your dentist is numbing you with local anesthetic.
